The fact that they are being forced to add sooner than later is actually bad for SMU. Unfortunately, we need at least five more years, and the Big XII will not wait that long.

SMU could hit 10+ wins next season and every year for 10 straight years and they aren't getting an invite to a b12 that ...

I guess we should be glad the games are televised at all...But yes, the homecoming game at 7:00 in November was stupid.

On a holiday weekend, 11:00am isn't terrible I guess. But if you are pitching a tent I can see how that would cause you to have to get up and going rather early.

After 25 or so years, you start to get numb to it.

No team will ever get the DP again after what it did to SMU. So they may as well take it off the books.

I'm all in. I take a beating being an SMU alum, but what can you do. Yes it sucked that they lost so awfully on Saturday, but at least they had a chance to win one time this season. Better than getting blown out!

I've been around since the year the team came back from the DP, so my expectations ...

For me maybe...the kid maybe a little young...

I'll be there. Will have to bundle up myself and the kid, who probably won't be very happy with me.

How does one prove SMU fandom???

I don't think SMU will or should drop the program, but I certainly don't think its a given that we have a football program in 10 years.

I think SMU football is at a major crossroads and I'm still not convinced we are fully committed to winning other than monetarily paying a huge chunk of cash for ...

This is ridiculous!

Perfect football weather! What's wrong with you people?!

fwiw cowlishaw comes to nearly all of our bball games. he is usually in the media section. he doesn't hate us.
most including the media checked out on football a long time ago.

Hate is a strong word, I'm sure he doesn't hate us either. Incompetently reports random misinformation because he's too ...

If we have a massive talent problem and not a youth problem, then it would infer that we would be a very bad team for the next two to three years. A limited recruiting class this year because the coach will come in late means we will be awful in 2015. That next recruiting class will lead to a ...

They go to class in their place, go to group study sessions in their place, and do the assignments for them. Schools like UT don't enforce attendance requirements like SMU. The athlete shows up for the test with answers the tutor gives them. I had friends at UT who got calls from tutors asking for ...

I was happy to see JJ's arrival. But I always wished he looked like he was a bit more openly enthusiastic about the job.
Once it was clear he wanted to leave I thought the school should have cut ties immediately. I don't doubt he may have had some legit issues with the school, but few coaches get ...
